My Pygmy Date Palm Has Root Exposed And The Lower Trunk Is Very Thin. I Had To Support It Because Has Fallen Twice.

Question

I plant it in 2009. I have included some photos. Do I cover the roots? It appears healthy and grows.

No, I'm sorry. Covering the roots is bad practice. This will come down to proper maintenance. Fortunately, this article will help:
